This made Gisborne the third most active region storm-wise in New Zealand on a day on which 3009 lightning strikes were recorded nationwide. The storm moved over the city at around 4pm, said MetService meteorologist Tom Adams. It was a localised, shortlived and intense event that dropped more than 12 millimetres of rain in an hour at Gisborne Airport. Mr Adams said there were shades of last week in this week’s forecast. Rain is forecast for Friday, with heavier falls on Saturday. Until then it is expected to be fine and humid, with a high of 28 degrees on Thursday. Amateur photographer Janice Feyen captured this shot at Whales in Okitu on her Samsung 10 phone. Janice says she saw the storm coming from her deck and there was a lot of running up and down the beach to get the right spot. “I spend hours down at the beach. I’m up at 5am waiting for the colours to come so to have a photo come out so amazing is wonderful.” Janice’s photo received the most reactions on the Current Gisborne and Surrounding Districts Facebook page to date, with 700 people “liking” her photograph.

    MONTI SAYS, KEEP ON TRUCKIN´ If you think globally, watch what you do locally. that was the message from Brussels last week as European Commission competition czar Mario Monti disallowed the takeover by Swedish truckmaker Volvo of its national competitor Scania. He banned the deal, not out of any concern that the resulting firm would dominate the European Union's total truck market, but because he believes it would stifle competition in Scandinavia. That argument seemed to fly in the face of the Commission's promotion of the E.U. as an integrated market-and its insistence that European firms have to adjust to a global marketplace. "We've always been told that there's a single market, but this ruling says it's national markets that matter," says Thierry Proteau, spokesman for the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association. "It's a disturbing paradox." In reaching the controversial but widely expected decision, Monti argued that the customer rather than the producer has to define the relevant market. A merged Volvo-Scania would have controlled some 90% of the Swedish market for heavy trucks and roughly the same proportion of the city bus market in Finland and Ireland. The fact that it would hold only some 31% of the European market as a whole offers scant solace to Swedish truck buy- ers, suggested Monti. They tend to look no further than their local dealerships-overwhelmingly Scania and Volvo-when they buy, the Commission's investigation found. Leif Johansson, Volvo's CEO, said that by judging the deal on those narrow local standards, the Commission's ruling "seem[s] to go against the basic concept of the common market." The decision leaves Volvo back where it was in January 1999 when it sold its passenger car division to Ford for $5.8 billion: cash-rich and keen to buy rather than be boughtunless, of course, the price is right.

The research covers the most significant political scandals from the “Propaganda Due” to the most famous “Tangentopoli”. The findings revealed that political scandal is a turning point in the modern democracy, which reveals the main system problems and gives a chance to the government to estimate the political risks and take an action to prevent the following worsening of the situation. Also the results of the research present an attempt to systemize on the base of the most recent data published in academic sources and classify and leading media political scandals according their actors, reasons and consequences as well as coverage in the media. Keywords: political scandals; modern politics; Christian democrats; Italy 1. Introduction Nowadays, in modern societies the interest in politics is fairly high, thus Media covers both public and private lives of politicians to satisfy this interest.
